Large–scale parallel applications performing global synchronization may spend a significant amount of execution time waiting for the completion of a barrier operation. Conseque...
The emerging paradigms of service oriented architectures and utility-based computing have the potential to greatly reduce the cost of data management. Data management service prov...
The Parallel-Horus framework, developed at the University of Amsterdam, is a unique software architecture that allows non-expert parallel programmers to develop fully sequential m...
